The Death of the Lake (Index page)
Navigation page for the fantasy novel. The first book of the Lake trilogy.
This is the Navigation/Index page for the dark romantic fantasy novel “The Death of the Lake”. It is the first book of my Lake trilogy. The second book is “The Heiress of the Lake”, also available on Substack. The third book “The Lord of the Lake” I will begin to share on Substack on July 6.
This fantasy is set in a semi-medieval world. It contains non-graphic violence and mild spice. Although the events of this fantasy are connected to the other two books, it can be read as a stand-alone. This version of the story is not perfect, but I believe the story itself is entertaining, and I hope you will give it a read.
The world around the wondrous lake Autumna is inhabited by different shifters - Snakelings, Birdlings, Wolflings and the long lost Dragonlings. Each have their own interests and their own magic. This is a story about a poet trapped inside a Dragonling, a creature with monstrous urges. About an evil Lord whose greed causes a war. A love that no water can drown. And a friendship stronger than death.

I prefer hand-painted to a lot of digital images. They have warmth. And this one is lovely.
I love the hand painted book cover art :)
